Anecdotal here too...
Sorry to say that the 2 couple I know who have been, thought it was overpriced and average.

I would always leave a new restaurant for a month or two to allow it to settle down before visiting.

If everybody did that they'd go bust before you got there!

There's a new Italian ice cream parlour being kitted out in one of the Travelodge's shop units.

Interesting!   It could have quite an impact on the excellent 'Looking Glass' just around the corner.

Went Friday lunch, quite good Burger, but £5 for a pint of Wrexham Lager!

Fair way to go to beat the King's house, though :-) 

TA reviews on that one are decidedly odd. More than half rate it as Terrible and slightly under half as Excellent.

It's a kebab house for late night drunks, what were you expecting?  :laugh:

We passed the London in Upper Mostyn Street this afternoon and noticed it had closed for refurbishment by the LC Hotel Group.

Correct!  They're going for world domination!

They certainly seem to have the confidence to invest in our town.

My guess is the London could eventually turn out to be another Snooze Bar.

Another great meal in the Blue Elephant on Friday night, the South Indian Garlic Chilli was as fantastic as always. I spotted a famous local journalist in there too.  8)
